		Erdogan may be the people's choice, but he still can't be Prime Minister, unless his government overturns the laws that barred him from serving in the first place and courts agree to lift the ban.
		Erdogan, 48, is just the latest politician to run afoul of such laws which — in the hands of zealous courts and a secularist army — have led to the banning of dozens of politicians and a handful of political parties over the years.
		Erdogan's biggest challenge now is balancing the requirements of Turkey's secular establishment against the demands of the estimated 8% of Turks who would welcome the imposition of Islamic law, or Shari'a.
